They always play the "well you're not ONLY attracted to this person's genitalia, therefore genitalia shouldn't matter at all" card. Your genitalia is a literal prerequisite that determines whether or not I'm even capable of being attracted to you. And once again, what's the difference between thinking this and trying to get gay people to have sex with the opposite sex? Should gay men automatically be attracted to butch women since they're masculine presenting? Should lesbians automatically be attracted to feminine men with long hair? That's not how any of this works and they know that.

This logic can be taken to ever more ridiculous conclusions. Why limit your attraction to humans? I imagine you love more than bipedalism and opposable thumbs, so why reduce your dating pool to these trivial features?

That's not how any of this works and they know that.

I agree. They know it's a barrier to entry and not the sum total of attraction, but they'd rather play dumb and hope it gaslights a few victims in the process.

That's an idea, why they would not just date rocks? Rock can't say "no".
